 Drawing with guided practice and
choice in visual formats can increase
                reading

  as creative problem-solving and
           critical thinking.
Drawing is Thinking
• The hand focuses the mind
• Focus = engagement = presence = mindfulness
Handmade Thinking as Engagement
• Physical, emotional, mental engagement
  strategy made possible by drawing responses
  to literary and non-literary texts
• Reading = presence

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. I’m interested in two problems I’ve encounteredin the English classroom. And when I say the English classroom, I mean any class, writing, literature, undergraduate, and graduate.
  2. Students don’t read what I assign them to read.
  3. Students don’t read what I assign them in a critical way
  4. How can we create more engaged and critical readers?
  5. Some teachers give pop quizzes.
  6. Some teachers give participation grades.
  7. Some teachershave students write daily responses about what they read. I do this.
  8. Some teachers have students draw their responses. I also do this.
  9. My ideas about using “handmade thinking” in English began after I read Dan Roam’s The Back of the Napkin. Dan Roam argues that drawing can be a powerful tool for problem-solving and presenting one’s ideas to others.
  10. Here they are in five groups.
  11. The first group included those similar to Dan Roam’s portraits and maps. We could also think of these as the “noun” group.
  12. Portraits
  13. Maps
  14. The next group includes images in pairs.
  15. This a comic panel with two people in dialogue.
  16. Comparison/contrast
  17. Venn diagram
  18. Seesaw
  19. Scales
  20. Some images indicate the growth of and relationship between ideas.
  21. Like a tree.
  22. The common web for brainstorming and mindmapping.
  23. The organizational chart.
  24. Which becomes a genealogical chart if you flip it.
  25. There are images that show, like Dan Roam says, quantities or how much.
  26. Bar charts
  27. Pie charts
  28. And multivariable charts. Roam puts this in the “why?” category.
  29. And finally, some images show a progression over time.
  30. Timeline
  31. Before and after. Also, could fit in the “pairs” category.
  32. The equation.
  33. A flow chart.
  34. Freytag’s pyramid plot line
  35. This is another multivariable chart or +/- plot line that shows progression up and down and left to right. I learned about this from my friend Austin Kleon who learned it from Kurt Vonnegut’s book Palm Sunday. I don’t know where Kurt Vonnegut learned it.
  36. This image is sediment, layers moving from bottom to top.
  37. Here they are again.
  38. Mary Karr’s CHERRY
  39. from THE END OF NATURE by Bill McKibben
  40. “A Clean Well-Lighted Place” by Ernest Hemingway
  41. Thoreau’s JOURNALS
  42. from “The Population Bomb” by Paul Ehrlich
  43. “Heat” by Joyce Carol Oates
  44. “The Journey” by Edith Wharton
  45. “A Journey” by Edith Wharton
  46. from SAND COUNTY ALMANAC by Aldo Leopold
